RFx response not show drop down list for PO doc type

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I am on SRM7.0 classic and ECC EhP4. When I click "Responses and Awards" button and accepted bid, "Create Purchase Order" button and "Simulate and Create Purchase Order" button will show on screen. But I can not find drop down list for Purchasing Document Type as I saw in SRM5.5.

In PPOMA_BBP, I already maintained attribute "DP_PROC_TY" = my PO doc type in ECC and "TEND_TYPE" = BID

What configuration topic that I missing?

Where I can select PO document type before PO created?

Please throw some light.

regards,

Theerat

Hi Alfie_Spain

Thank you very much. You are correct ! Note no. 1323983 can solved my problem.

Full point rewarded.

My final configurations are :

- Leave "Transaction types of Follow-on Documents" in SPRO to blank.

- Set attribute "DP_PROC_TY" to ZCON, ZGEN etc. (manaul input)

- implement note no. 1323983

This thread is answered.

Hello Theerat,

Did you just implement 1323983 or also the pre-requisite for this note ie..Note#1300911? We are on SRM 7.0 SP level 8 and the pre-requisite note cannot be implemented ...

I am not sure if implementing 1323983 without the prerequisite will cause any damage? We have exactly the same problem..

Hi Saji

I just only implemented note no. 1323983. I am also on SRM 7.0 patch level 8.

for note no.1300911, I faced the same thing as you.

If you have any problem after you implemented this note, you can reset this note implementation.

Hello Theerat,

I just implemented it. I just checked one of my pre-existing RFx responses. It now pops up a box showing me the Document type to choose, but still gives an error "Purchaser order cannot be created as there are no line items" even after I choose the document type.

Do I need to start from SC-RFx--RFx response.. all over again?

Is your problem completely solved?

Thanks

Theerat,

You have mentioned that you have many transaction types in "DP_PROC_TY" . Have you maintained the same under BSA also? What about the number ranges in these different transaction types that you have used in SRM? "Define number ranges per backend sytem" can have only one number range per backend system. How have you mapped all these number ranges?

I still have problems. While testing Plan driven procurement (in classic scenario - SRM 7+ ECC 6) I discovered that it creates local P.Os bearing the same number range that regular backend P.Os already have..

Have you maintained the P.O number range in "Define Number range for Local Purchase orders"? or is it just in "Define Number ranges for Shopping carts and follow on documents" .

Thanks

Dear Saji,

My problem is not completely solved yet.

For DP_PROC_TY, I maintained only PO doc type for follow-on document from RFx.

And BSA, I maintained only PO doc type for follow-on document from shopping cart

(difference from DP_PROC_TY)

For number range in SRM -> SRPO :

"Define Number Ranges for Shopping Carts and Follow-on Documents"

I maintained "PO" as internal number range and

"Define Number Ranges per Backend System for Follow-on Documents"

I maintained "PO" in Number Range POs with backend logical system

For number range in ECC -> SPRO

"Define Number Ranges" for Purchase Order

I maintained "PO" as external number range and assigned it to all PO doc type (that

I maintained in DP_PROC_TY) in "NoRge Ext"

For plan driven procurement, I not used this process and not maintained no range in

"Define Number range for Local Purchase orders"

Hope this information can help you.

Hi,

How many values are maintained for DP_PROC_TY attributes and which one is the default?

Regards,

Masa

[Former Member]

Hi Masa,

Case1

When I click F4, system show value : ECDP , ECPO , ECPP.

I only maintained ECPO and can not set default because it is gray field even I stay at root node.

Then I click "create PO" button, system show message "Purchase order 800000000X is in the process of transfer to back-end system" but no value pop-up for selection PO type before created. Even I add my PO doc types, it's still the same.

Case2

My PO doc types are : ZGEN, ZPRE, ZCON etc. when I maintained only my PO doc type without ECPO.

Once I click "Create Purchase Order" button, system show message :

"Purchase order cannot be created as there are no items"

Please advise me.

Hi,

How about ECPO? Is it document type in ERP or SRM?

Regards,

Masa

[Former Member]

HI

you described earlier that you are in classic mode

*so PO must create a ECC system only * Think think .

Note 626316 - Bid invitation from sourcing: back-end PO not createdA bid invitation was created from sourcing. The scenario is the classic purchase order. But the purchase order is not transferred from the bid invitation to the back-end system

SRM will generate number range only.

Note 1476307 - Importing parameter not filled in BADI BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS

Note 1398978 - Wrong determined backend logical sys. during the PO creation

[Former Member]

Hi Masa,

ECPO is document type in SRM

but my scenario is classic. I would like to create PO in ECC only. I'm not sure that as I set

BUS2200 BID BUS2201 ECPO in "Transaction Type of Follow-on Documents" entry in the "Define Transaction Type"

is correct or not? If wrong how should I set it?

because if I blank this configuration, I will face the message

"Purchase order cannot be created as there are no items"

If I maintained it, I system can create PO but no PO doc type value selection in pop-up

So I can not select PO doc type before PO created.

Thank you very much for your generousness.

Theerat

Hi,

Your landscape is Classic mode. Please delete the entry in Transaction Type of Follow-on Documents.

Regards,

Masa

[Former Member]

Hi Masa,

Thank you for your suggestion.

After I delete setting as you told me, and set attribute DP_PROC_TY = ZGEN, ZCON, ZPRE (Doc type in ECC)

(manual input because in F4 just have value ECDP, ECPO, ECPP even I inactive all of these in BUS2201)

but when I click "Create Purchase Order" button system show error message

"Purchase order cannot be created as there are no items"

How should I fix it?

Hi all,

Now I just finish configuration for follow-on document for Contract. After I retest I founded that

when I click accept bid and refresh screen, "Create Contract " button appeared.

Then I click this button, pop-up will show with Contract type. I can select and click create contract in pop-up later.

So I think for PO case should be the same right?

This mean that when I click "Create Purchase Order" button, pop-up should be appeared with PO doc type inside, isn't it?

But now for my PO case still nothing appear in pop-up, anythings I missing?

Anybody can help me?

Hi Theerat

eventually learnt that . This SIMULATION feature used --before replicating the PO from SAP to ERP . In customizing, an option exists to either issue an error or a warning if the consistency check is unsuccesful.

In case of error message , all simulation issues must be resolved prior to the PO being transmitted to the backend SAP ERP system. This also means that the PO will be not sent to the vendor.

Alternatively, in case of a warning message, the PO is transmitted to the backend system regardless of any issues that might exist.This PO is sent to the supplier as well

Note 1409676 - Issue with Simulate and Create PO from RFx Response

Note 1306030 - No proper error message for Create PO without Items

OR IF YOU DONT WANT THIS

Note 1445263 - Disable Simulate PO button in Rfx Response

Hi Masa,

I am new in SRM7.0

Thank you very much for your advice. After I maintained as you told me :

BUS2200 BID BUS2201 ECPO

But everything the same, field label "Transaction Type for Purchase Order" and drop down list

not show on screen.

As I remembered in SRM5.5, even I missing some configuration for this. But label "Transaction Type for Purchase Order"

still show on screen with non-value in drop down list.

But in SRM7.0 I cannot find this label,

1. Where I can select PO doc type before create PO?

2. I am not sure that in SRM7.0 still have same process like SRM5.5?

(accept bid -> click refresh button -> drop down list appear -> select PO doc type -> click generate PO button)

3. In addition when I tried to click "Create Purchase Order" button system show errror msg :

"Purchase order cannot be created as there are no items" even I have item information.

Or when I click "Simulate and Create Purchase order" nothing show in pop-up. How I can solve this error?

Could you please give me some hints?

Best regards,

Theerat
